Rovaniemi Full-Day City Tour
Rovaniemi Full-Day City Tour
At the indicated time, we'll meet at 29 Maakuntakatu. From this point in Rovaniemi, we'll kick off this exciting experience.
First, we'll visit a reindeer and husky farm. If snow conditions allow, we'll hop aboard a sled pulled by huskies, one of the oldest dog breeds in the world, for a short ride. And not only that, but we'll also get to enjoy another of the most common forms of travel for the Sami people: reindeer sledding. Generally, both rides will take place, but this will depend on whether there is snow.
Then, we'll head to Santa Claus Village, where you'll enjoy a delicious buffet lunch and you'll even meet Father Christmas himself, his helpers and his reindeer. You'll even be able to deliver a letter to him in person! The village also crosses the line marking the Arctic Circle, so why not take a photo with a foot on each side?
Afterwards, you'll head straight to the Arktikum Museum, one of the most iconic buildings in the city. Not only is the museum dedicated to teaching visitors about the different periods of the ice age, the secrets of the Aurora Borealis, the animals of the Artic and the area's indigenous Sami people, but it's also an architectural gem. The entire building was constructed with a focus on local natural materials, and its highlight is a 564-foot-long (172 m) glass corridor stretching from north to south.
To finish off your full day of adventure, we'll head back to the meeting point in Rovaniemi, bringing the experience to an end.
